Valentine gift ideas



We had a red basket from Christmas that has been hanging around...so I decided to make it into a Valentines basket, to give to someone....or not!

Well, I don't think it will make it out of your house!
My daughter has become attached to it!

So anyway, here is the Christmas basket, and I just pulled off the front of it.


Then I cut a white and red heart out of felt and started stitching yard around the hearts.

Then I hot glued them onto the basket.


Now that you have the fr0nt decorated, add any goodies you want to to the basket.
I told you...she was just loving this basket!!

Then we made a card to attach to it.


Then we wrapped the whole thing in tulle. I punched a hole in the card and tied it around the top of the tulle with red ribbon.


I'll bet this basket doesn't make it out of my house!
